(Australia) – See all my reviews Where else can you find the bitchiest 50 year old, dressed in the most extravagant gowns of all time? Sounds like the perfect show to me! Yes, Dynasty was without a doubt that one show that basically encouraged fans to sit back, put up their feet and watch how these "rich bastards" are living! No other show, not even the ultra popular Dallas, could take fantasy to that level. The show made you feel as though you too could be a Carrington living in a mansion and drinking champange.

The "storylines" or perhaps lack of, left plenty of room to emphasize what audiences really wanted to see: sex, power, vanity and the most expensive jewels in all the world! This is Dynasty and the 80s at its very best! 19 of 23 people found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?

The tale of Colorado oil tycoon Blake Carrington and the women he loved and wronged captivated America each week for eight years on ABC.

The show premiered Jan. 12, 1981, and, by 1982, was in the top 10 before landing at No. 1 in 1985. "Dynasty" was nominated every year from 1981 through 1986 for a Golden Globe Award for Best TV Drama. Its stars went on to far-reaching careers in Hollywood and beyond. Click through our slideshow for a look at where seven of its most well-known stars went after Dynasty went off the air in 1989. Cast of 'Dynasty': Where Are They Now? ABC John Forsythe John Forsythe led the drama on "Dynasty" as patriarch Blake Carrington, the ruthless CEO of oil enterprise Denver-Carrington. Forsythe landed the role on "Dynasty" after a long-running stint as the mysterious voice of Charlie on "Charlie's Angels," for which he was the highest-paid actor on television. He reprised the role in 2000, when the television show was remade into a movie starring Cameron Diaz, Lucy Liu and Drew Barrymore. Forsythe and his wife, Julie Warren, who died in 1994, had two daughters.

He was remarried in 2002 to Nicole Carter, and died in April 2010 of pneumonia in California. He was 92 years old. Forsythe was nominated for a Golden Globe award six years in a row for his role on "Dynasty" and won the award twice. Cast of 'Dynasty': Where Are They Now? ABC Linda Evans Linda Evans played the ultimate trophy wife, Krystle Carrington, to John Forsythe's Blake Carrington. She was awarded a Golden Globe for her performance in the show's first season and nominated four other times during the course of the show. After "Dynasty," Evans left Hollywood and headed for the hills of Washington state, where she took up cooking. She competed on and won the British version of the TV show "Hell's Kitchen," and published a cookbook and memoir, "Recipes for Life," in 2012. Evans, age 70, lives in Rainier, Wash., where she has 70 acres of woods and land. "The pressure [was] too big," Evans told ABC News in 2009. "I moved up here and within the first year I gained 25 pounds.

It was so much fun not to put on makeup and just to be a regular person." Cast of 'Dynasty': Where Are They Now? ABC Joan Collins Joan Collins captivated America when she joined the cast of "Dynasty" in season two as the troublesome Alexis Carrington Colby, Blake Carrington's ex-wife. Collins got the part after actress Sophia Loren turned it down earlier that year.

She wrote dozens of self-help and beauty books in the years after "Dynasty," as well. In 1997, Collins was awarded the title of Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II.

Getty 10 Of 10 John Forsythe After spending the 1970s starring on Charlie's Angels, John Forsythe became the head of "Dynasty"'s dynasty: Blake Carrington, the oil tycoon at the center of it all.

Forsythe stayed with the show for all nine seasons of dastardly drama, and reprised his character in the TV movie reunion in 1991. After retiring the Carrington character, he appeared in a number of other shows and movies, even lending his voice to the Charlie's Angels movies in the early 2000s. Forsythe passed away in 2010 . Getty Joan Collins | People | Pioneers of Television | PBS PEOPLE Joan Collins Joan Collins, an actress since her teen years, studied for the stage at the Royal Academy in London. She often played “bad girls and juvenile delinquents,” Collins said. “It has something to do with the way I look.” Collins didn’t have any interest in acting for film or TV until an agent booked her small parts in a few films. In her early twenties, Collins came to Hollywood and landed starring roles, including in “The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing” (1955).

Despite her previous work, Collins didn’t become a household name until she landed the part of Alexis Carrington in “Dynasty.” The producers had first offered the part to Sophia Loren and Elizabeth Taylor, but they declined, allowing Collins to make her debut in season two and to play the role of a lifetime. She kept a cool, cosmopolitan air about her on “Dynasty,” even when ad-libbing during a famous cameo appearance by Henry Kissinger, the result of the show shooting at a real gala ball in Denver. The director told Collins to say something to Kissinger, who had agreed simply to greet her character by name. Collins quickly tried to think of what Alexis would say to the statesman and chose, “Henry, darling, I haven’t seen you since we last met in Portofino, it was fun!” Joan Collins’ Catfights No TV series showcased luxury more than “Dynasty.” As beautiful as the fashion, jewelry, and lavish homes were, the catfights were just as memorable. It wasn’t until Joan Collins entered the show with a deliciously biting performance as the scheming Alexis Carrington, that the over-the-top “girl fights” began.

The catfights between Collins and Linda Evans (Krystle Carrington) are legendary. “I loved it when I saw a scene coming up in which Linda and I were going to have conflict… Linda and I would go all out,” said Collins. It was one of the first times that knock-down, drag-out fights between two women were seen on television and America ate it up.
